I noticed NPR commentators in the US (particularly younger, progressive ones) love the adjective "problematic."

Upon reflection in the car, I literally have no idea what information they're trying to convey via its use. It seems obviously defined on its face, but problematically lacking when one tries to characterize it in detail.

Are you saying it's bad? Wrong? Unjust? I have no idea!
